Have they gotten him back yet?! This is crazy! I hate when ppl steal innocent horses. He's been located right? I hope he's ok!!!!!

I have no updates for this.

When the located him, they took down the "wanted" picture that had all the replies and updates, so I lost the story. Does anyone have any information?

Slidestop, most vets do implants and have a scanner to read the code.

Yeah, its the implantable ID. My thoughts were more along the line of a GPS type implantable ID, especially if you have a horse who is worth some $$$. They do have one for dogs that attaches to collars already, its probably a matter of time before they can make it implantable.

I'd love to have one of those for my horses, honestly. It seems like every time I get on Facebook I'm hearing about another stolen horse....

Roan stallion

Just recently stolen in the Edmonton Alberta area. White spot on forehead, large snip, two white socks on same side, the off side. He's a reddish roan. May also be a TWH. Pic is on FB altho not sure about finding it. There is a gaited section.

Saddlebag-maybe you would have better visibility with a new thread? Many fols know the horse this thread was for has been found.

 

[franknbeans]

Regarding the original horse this thread was about-I messages the owner on fb to confirm and have not heard from her, but according to her fb page she has a trial date of July 9. I was asking if the horse was home....will let you all know if I hear from her.

 

[Saddlebag]

Ah, my error. The horse is listed on Net Posse and hasn't been removed as yet. Was he stolen or did he go seeking a mare?

Update!

Here is an update from the owner. As most of you know, the horse was found, and initially the owner said she just had to produce paperwork.......well I messaged her on FB and asked what was happening, and here is the answer. Sounds like the system is failing her, and it stinks.

Conversation started Tuesday

"Is your horse back home? If not, why? All you had to do was produce paperwork, right?"

Today

Owner
"That's not all I had to do. I gave them the paperwork and the thief claimed that it was all false so now they have to do a handwriting analysis and fingerprint all documents. The handwriting analysis will take a month and then the fingerprinting will be 2 weeks to a month and THEN they can set a court date. In the meantime, I've filed civilly as well and that court date will be July 9th. The thief is now stating that she might own 30% of Fortune, at most, but officials still won't allow him to be moved till after a court decision. He has some medical issues and now he's overdue to see a farrier and there's nothing I can do for him. It's ridiculous. It's also come to light that the thief has been convicted of child neglect in the past and is currently under investigation by cps for child abuse and running an illegal daycare. Convictions of child abuse and child neglect are confidential and only viewable by cps and some court officials. The laws are horrible in all of this."

Wow, I guess the old premise 'possession is 9/10's of the law' actually exists.:shock:

I'm picking up there must be some history between the real owner and the alleged thief???

I know that a boarder distracted her friend who was supervising while she was away getting cancer treatment, so that a killbuyer could sneak in and get the horse. Not sure why she wanted the killbuyer to get the horse, though.... Horrible.

any updates on this?

 

[my2geldings]

Any updates? I cant imagine what you're going through right now.

I hope the horse is out of the kill pens. Perhaps the owner can go back to the person she purchased the horse from , and have that person testify, or has she done this ?
